Yes. Because we sail within protected national parks (like Espíritu Santo), conservation rules are built into our experience. The "Expedition Code" includes:
• Respecting wildlife distances and time limits
• No chasing or surrounding animals with multiple boats
• Using reef-safe sunscreen only
• Following guide and captain directions over guest desires
• No amplified music on shore; leave-no-trace practices
We also appoint a guest "Eco-Host" per boat to champion practices like reusable bottles, waste separation, and reef-safe sunscreen. These aren't restrictions, they're what allow us to be in these pristine waters.
